Bike Anti-Porn - When Things Go Wrong

The Kimera is a 2.4kg carbon fibre frameset. When you throw that much material at the problem, you'd have your work cut out not to make it as stiff as a board.

Ah. Yeah for 2005 that may have been good, these days not so.

Care to enlighten me on the mega compact MTB style road frames these days? Is it as simply as "small triangle == stiffer" so let's make the TTs as low as we possibly can?

Why not make the seat stays mega low at all times?

Is it truly research or just fashion?
